Ted Nugent rocks Las Vegas ‘for Chris Kyle … in defiance of all the pieces of {expletive}’

Ted Nugent rocks Las Vegas ‘for Chris Kyle … in defiance of all the pieces of {expletive}’

Ted Nugent, conservative rocker, roused a Las Vegas crowd with an inspiring rendition of the National Anthem — and with a patriotic expression of support for slain U.S. sniper Chris Kyle.

“Freedom isn’t free,” Mr. Nugent said, during a performance at the Outdoor Channel’s 15th annual Golden Moose Awards, The Blaze reported. “This is dedicated to the heroes of the military. God bless the military warriors, especially the snipers. God bless the snipers. This is for Chris Kyle and in defiance of all the pieces of [expletive] who don’t get it.”

I wouldn't bother to post this, except that I know how eager so many of you are to comment.

I did have this over in LBN. Then I thought, "what's so newsworthy about Ted Nugent's not seeing the self-inflicted irony - sorry, chutzpah - in what he's doing?" So I self-deleted the thread.

I was trying to mention his little stunt that got him to avoid service to "protect our freedoms", but I like your post.

4. Freedom isn't free...you have to piss and shit yourself for a month for the freedom to not serve

Combine this scumbag's well-documented penchant for "jailbait" with his creative solution for avoiding the draft and you have the whole picture.

Worst moment in recent memory was when "The Nuge" played at Full Throttle Saloon in Sturgis and dedicated that night's show to "our Military" as a sea of shit-faced bikers applauded his little dog and pony show without once questioning the irony of an unrepentant draft dodger.

I mean, Dick Cheney went to college and got Lynne pregnant. Nugent went to the bathroom in his pants and refrained from bathing for a month. I don't need any lessons in "patriotism" from this swine.

Him supporting the troops and calling someone else a "piece of shit" when he shit his pants to get out of serving Vietnam and referring to himself as a "walking talking hunk of human poop" (his words) is just way too rich for words!

It is sad that he got cheers for being such a stinking pile of hypocrisy.

What a shame there are so many who ascribe god-like status to morally bankrupt individuals like Chris Kyle.
